i crash to desktop a ton with this version. i have the 1.1 patch. its not all the time, only when i do much of anything messing with the player vs cpu game settings. i cant play anything other than facitlities or reinforcments. i cant play as empire against a cpu alliance. i cant play any of the scenarios, and a lot of maps do it for me too. in every instance except scenarios, i crash to desktop at the Univers stage of the loading. in the scenarios, i crash at the end of loading, when it should put me in to the game. any ideas? since there arent any other posts about this that i can see, im guessing i did something wrong

Created a new profile? We need to know which files you downloaded, what you used in your command line, and need to see your hw2.log file as well

looks like a new profile fixed most of it. i still cant load endor howveer. heres the logfile text

all the files i have downloaded are in the commandline, i odnt have anything in my directory except core game files, and those files for this version of warlords. no previous versions, no other mods

 

 

edit: i noticed its also trying to reference a folder that doesnt exist in the beginning. is this supposed to be there, and if so, why wouldnt it be?

Edited June 15, 200719 yr by shadowlegion421

try a different map than the endor one

other scenario maps work now, but there seems to be something im missing that endor is trying to reference. is there another file i may not have? also, i ceated the folder it was looking for at the beginning, the data\lacale\english folder, but there was obviously nothing in it. it cleared the error in the log, but didnt seem to effect anything else.

the locale directory is always there so it shouldn't be a problem, I will take a look at the endor map and see if it might be missing something

any word on this yet?
